Eating the Peaches as Fast as they Ripen at The Lazy Vegan

The peaches are especially good this year and we've been eating them straight off of the tree as soon as they ripen! Sometimes I'll stand under the tree and eat several, one after the other. This usually gets the attention of the donkeys, who will come stand around and wait for a bite. Paco loves peaches but Luigi will just sniff them. I only give Paco one or two bites- I don't think peaches are really part of their diet plan!

The boys helped me do a massive manure clean-up in the pasture today. I left the wheelbarrow outside of the fence so they didn't knock it over- but that didn't prevent them from trying to knock ME over as I cleaned up!

Paco spotted a neighbor walking two dogs on the road.

I know Paco feels badly about accidentally whacking the side of my face the other day. I'm still amazed I didn't get a bruise. I iced the spot on and off for a long time.

Ready for fun and games!

Fun with the sweet grain pan, as usual. See video at bottom of blog!

Tonight Weegie came racing in for sweet grain.

Everyone has their spot.

Boulder checks out the garden.

The foreman relaxes in the garden at lunch time.

Boulder was hard to find at meal times today- he was hanging out in unusual places.

I'm really into buying things in bulk lately- it is so much cheaper than buying packaged food! Especially popcorn, which we make almost nightly, sprinkled with nutritional yeast. Yum!
